37/40 37 divide it by 25 and it comes out 37 and if you divide 25 into 1000 in comes out to be 40
The dimension from 8 inches to actual size is 8 * 15 = 120. 14.5 inches to actual size is 14.5 * 15 = 217.5.
Then, you multiply 120 to 217.5 to get 26100 square miles.
The answer is D.
From the diagram you can see that plane cuts each lateral face of hexagonal pyramid and do not cut the base. A hexagonal pyramid has six lateral faces. The intersection of each of these lateral faces with given cutting plane is segment. The figure which consists of these segments is hexagon. This hexagon is not the same as base and even is not similar to the base because the cutting plane is not parallel to the base.
Answer: resulting cross section is a hexagon, correct choice is option 4.
